There is not much to do nearby during the Summer. It takes 20 minutes to drive to Le Carroz, where there are lots of activities and shops. The hotel is good for winter because it is very close to the ski lift. It takes more than one hour to drive to Chamonix. The distance is only 19 kilometers to Chamonix. Since the mountain road is rugged, driving is quite slow, especially if you have kids in the car. The hotel room is big. We booked a suite with a balcony. Since it is low season, the room price is a great value.
5/5 – What a great find! We booked this place last minute while passing through on a road trip and honestly, it turned out to be a bit of a gem. Check-in was smooth and friendly — the staff were welcoming and helpful, even at short notice, which really set a positive tone right from the start.
We didn’t get a chance to try many of the extra facilities in the area, but we did head out to eat both nights and the nearby restaurants were solid. Great food, decent prices, and the whole area just had this super relaxed vibe — exactly what we needed after spending the day out mountain biking. The atmosphere in the village is chilled, friendly, and has that peaceful mountain energy that helps you properly unwind.
The room itself was basic but exactly as advertised. Spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything you actually need. It wasn’t luxury, but it didn’t need to be — it did the job and felt comfortable enough to fully relax in. The bed was slightly on the firm side for my taste, but honestly, for the price we paid, I can’t really complain. Everything worked, there was space to spread out, and it felt like good value.
We were only staying for a short stopover, but this is 100% somewhere I’d come back to for a longer stay. It’s got all the ingredients for a chilled-out mountain base — great location, good food nearby, easy access to trails, and a friendly vibe all round.
Really glad we stumbled upon it — it turned out to be one of those pleasant surprises that made our trip that much better. Would happily stay here again.
Great value stay in a beautiful location! We stayed at Résidence La Forêt Pierre & Vacances for two nights and were really pleased with the experience. The location is stunning and very convenient - one of the highlights was the orange lift that takes you straight down the hill into a charming little village full of restaurants, shops, and great views.
The room itself was basic but had everything we needed: cooking utensils, a hob, microwave, washing up liquid, sponge, drying rack, and decent WiFi. Beds were comfy enough for a short stay. The staff were friendly and helpful, giving us useful local info at check-in.
For the price we paid, we were very satisfied. It's not luxury, but it's clean, practical, and set in a fantastic spot. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an affordable mountain break.
